Chords for The Jacksons - Blame it on the Boogie | Best of Bass Lines | Julia Hofer | Thomann

Hey guys, [Db] welcome to Tomans Guitars and Basses.
[F] Today we're looking at the song Blame [Am] It On The Boogie by [Bb] The [Eb] Jacksons. _
_ _ [D] _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Eb] _ _
The song was [N] released in 1978 and was actually written by English singer-songwriter Mick Jackson.
The tune is a disco song, so we've got a four on the floor bass drum groove and matching to this,
the bass is playing some octave lines, but with some melodic elements.
As so many other disco songs, you can guess the song by just listening to the drums and the bass,
and that's because the bass plays such a big role in the [Eb] composition.
So, have fun with Blame It On The Boogie. _ _
